Labor Troubles ard Their Result.

The labor strikes in the United
States for the fist two months of 1887
numbered l66, involving $4,000 en-
ployes, as against "a strikes and 81.
900 employees for the same period of
1886. Of this number 27 strikes. in
which 10000 persons were engaged,
were still pending and unsettled at the
close of February, Forty-three strikes
including 23,523 strikers, were success
tul or were settled by compromises, in
dicatiDg partial success. Ninety six
strikes, in which 59,777 hands were en-
gagged, were absolute failures. Less
than 30 per cent of the strikes have
proved successful in any degree and
even in those that were nominally sue
cessful it is extremely doubtful whether
the advance secured will make good
the absolute loss sustained while the
strikers were idle.
Besides the $4,000 strikers $4,000
workers whe did not strike were thrown
out OF employment through the scarcity
OF coal or raw materials consequent up
on the strike. The loss in wages to
the strikers and those whose idleness
was solely due to the strikes was be-
tween three and four millions of dol
lars. When it is understood that less
than thirty per cent. of the strikes were
successful it is hard to see where any
proper return is to be realized as an
offset to this immense loss. This esti
mate does not include the loss to the
general business of the country, which
must have been fully as great as the
loss to the workingmen.
There is one feature of this striking
business which is lost sight of by the
tlmid souls who think the unusual large
number of strikes at present portend
general disaster to the country. This
is that the strikers numbered less than
one hundred thousand out of nearly
twenty millions of workers in the
country. The public heard a great
deal about the hundred thousand strikes
and very little about the nineteen mill
ion nine hundred thousand that kept
quietly at their work The hundred
thousand mad, more noise than the
nearly two hundred times their num-
Der who continued at work. But this
comparison shows that the prosperity
OF the country is stable and that the
dissatisfied portion of the working pop
ulation forms but a very small percent
age OF its vast army of industrial toll
ers. There is great loss to both strikers
and employers in the limited circles to
which these labor suspensions extend,
but the great mass of the working
people show by their continued indus,
try that they are fully aware of the
fact that it pays better to be busy at
the wages they can get than TO be idle
even small part of the time in the
delusise hope of getting large in.

SUICIDE AND LIFE INSURANCE.

A case involving the old question of
life insurance and suicide is No. 1926
the Accident Insurance Company of
North America, plaintiff in error
against Loretta NJ. Crandall. In error
to the United States Circuit Court for
the district OF Illinois This is a suit
upon n policy of accident insurance,
aud presents the question whether a
policy of insurance against "bodily in.
juries effcc;ed through external, acci-
dental and violent MEANS" and pro.
viding that ",his insurance shall not
extend to death or disability which may
bave been caused wholly or in part by
bodily iufirmities or disease, or by the
taking OF poison, or by suicide or self
inflicted injuries covers a death by
hanging ones self while insane. This
Court holds that the question is to a
great extent determined by previous
decisions as to the effect of policy of
life insurance, which provides that it
shall be null and void if the assured
"shall die by suicide" This Court has
repeatedly and uniformly held that
such a provision not containing the
words "sane or insane" does not include
a self-killing by an insane person. The
Judgment Of the Circuit Court in favor
OF the plaintiff was correct and is
affirmed. Opinion by Justice Gray.

During an acute attack Of Bronchitis,
ceaseless tickling in the throat, and an
exhausting, hacking cough, afflict the
sufferer. Sleep is banished, and great
prostration follows. This disease is also
attended with Hoarseness, and some
times Loss OF Voice. 1t is liable to be-
come chronic, involve the lungs, and
terminate fatally. Ayers Cherry Pecto-
raj affords speedy relief and cure in cases
of Bronchitis. 1t controls the disposition
to cough, and induces refreshing sleep.

The Ape as q Useful Animal.

Apes probably rank next to man in
general intelligence, and, though they
lack perseverance, there seems TO be no
reason for doubling that they might be
trained to do a variety Of useful work.
This IL the opinion OF Nine. Clemence
Roger, the French translator OF Darwin,
but she points out that the domesticated
apes would require great quantities Of
such food as fruit, bread and eggs, thai
the process Of educating them would be
costly, and that for many generations the
climate Of Europe would be ~toossevere
for them. She suggests that the expert.
ment should be tried first in tropical
countries, where the apes might aid in
